A Comprehensive Reference Manual of Sacred Languages and Magickal Systems

1.0 Introduction: The Power of the Sacred Word and Number

MH HBVNH = M. A. B. N.

Nothing but a faint resemblance of the letter G! That is not the Master's word, nor a key to it. I fear the Master's word is forever lost.

—from the Third, or Master Mason's, Degree

Within the Western Mystery Tradition, no legend better encapsulates the quest for esoteric knowledge than the Masonic allegory of the "lost word." The story centers on Hiram Abiff, King Solomon's chief architect, who is murdered for refusing to reveal the secret fourfold word of power. In the ritual of the Master Mason's Degree, the candidate symbolically relives Hiram's death and resurrection, a process culminating in the recovery of this word. Yet, the word whispered to the newly raised initiate—"MAH HAH BOH NAY"—is not the true word, but a substitute. Masonic rubrics write it as three syllables, but it is secretly pronounced as four, and its origin lies not in French or mere fancy, but in the sacred language of Hebrew.

As Hebrew, Mah Hah Boh Nay (מה הבונה) translates to the question, "What? Is this the Builder's Word?" It is a coded inquiry, acknowledging that this is a placeholder for the true lost word: the Tetragrammaton, the four-lettered name of God (IHVH). This quest for a word of power, a sonic key that can unlock creation, is a foundational principle of esoteric philosophy. It presumes that the universe is encoded in a divine language, and that profound truths are revealed in the relationship between language, number, and cosmology.

The ancient Greek method of isopsephism, a form of gematria, provides a powerful illustration of this principle. By assigning a numerical value to each letter of the alphabet, hidden connections between seemingly disparate concepts can be revealed. Consider the Greek words Agape (Αγάπη), meaning Love, and Thelema (Θέλημα), meaning Will:

• Αγάπη (Agape) = α (1) + γ (3) + α (1) + π (80) + η (8) = 93
• Θέλημα (Thelema) = θ (9) + ε (5) + λ (30) + η (8) + μ (40) + α (1) = 93

The numerical equivalence of Love and Will to the number 93 is no mere coincidence; it is a revelation, suggesting a profound mystical identity between the two concepts. This manual serves as a practical reference and a working key to unlock these sacred languages and magickal systems. From the cosmological foundations of the elements and planets to the intricate alphanumeric codes of Hebrew, Greek, Runic, and Enochian traditions, the following sections provide the necessary tools for the modern researcher and practitioner to continue the Great Work of decoding the divine language of the universe.

2.0 Foundational Cosmological Correspondences

Before delving into the intricate alphanumeric codes of specific magickal languages, it is essential to grasp the foundational cosmological frameworks that underpin them. Across numerous esoteric traditions, a shared symbolic language emerges from the universal patterns of the elements, the seven classical planets, and the twelve signs of the zodiac. These systems provide the structural context and symbolic grammar upon which the sacred alphabets are built, allowing practitioners to map the macrocosm of the universe to the microcosm of the human soul.

2.1 The Elemental Keys: The Building Blocks of Creation

The classification of the cosmos into a cycle of elements represents a primary building block in both Eastern and Western cosmological models. These systems, ranging from threefold to fivefold divisions, provide a fundamental key to understanding the nature of creation.

1. The Threefold System

In Alchemy, the cosmos is understood through three root-essence elements: Sulfur, Salt, and Mercury. Sulfur represents the fiery, active male principle; Salt is the fluidic, receptive female principle; and their interaction gives rise to Mercury, the airy, androgynous, and equalizing force. This triadic system is mirrored in the Qabalistic Sepher Yetzirah, which uses the three Hebrew mother letters—Shin (Fire), Mem (Water), and Aleph (Air)—to categorize the 22 paths of the Tree of Life. A notable variation exists within the Golden Dawn tradition, which assigns Sulfur to red, Mercury to blue, and Salt to yellow, an alteration made to align the system with the colors of the five Hindu Tattvas.

Attribute	Sulfur (Fire)	Mercury (Air)	Salt (Water)
Power	Penetrating	Equalizing	Yielding
Gender	Male	Androgynous	Female
Family	Father	Child	Mother
Color	Red	Yellow	Blue
Metallic	Golden	Variegated	Silvery
Tarot	Judgement	The Fool	The Hanged Man
Greek iAO	Alpha (First)	Iota (Middle)	Omega (Last)
Tree of Life	Chockmah	Kether	Binah

2. The Fourfold Systems

The division of creation into four elements is a cornerstone of Western esotericism, primarily expressed through two distinct ordering systems.

Tetragrammaton Elemental Order

Rooted in the Hebrew Qabalah, this system arranges the elements according to the four letters of the Tetragrammaton (IHVH), linking them to the archetypal family unit and the suits of the Tarot. This order—Fire, Water, Air, Earth—is considered the esoteric sequence used in modern magick.

Attribute	Fire (Yod)	Water (Heh)	Air (Vav)	Earth (Heh Final)
Gender	Male	Female	Male	Female
Family	Father	Mother	Son	Daughter
Direction (Enochian)	South	West	East	North
Tarot Suits	Wands	Cups	Swords	Pentacles
Archangel	Raphael	Michael	Uriel	Gabriel
Kerub	Man	Lion	Eagle	Ox
==Joshua Abraham's 33rd Degreee Masonic Infiltration==	Lion	Man	Eagle	Ox
...................(Force Power & Holy Book)	Qur'an - Control via Submission	King James Bible - Power of the Apostles to Heal Others	Currently the Book of the Law, Historically the Book of the Dead - Control via Demonology	Vedic Scriptures - Power of Healing Yourself

Renaissance-Alchemical Elemental Order

Derived from the Hellenistic tradition of Plato and Aristotle, this system orders the four elements as gradations of refined matter, from the most ethereal (Fire) to the densest (Earth). This is often considered the exoteric order.

Attribute	Fire	Air	Water	Earth
Quality	Hot	Moist	Cold	Dry
Humor	Choler	Phelgm	Blood	Melancholy
Direction	East	West	North	South
Man	Mind	Spirit	Soul	Body

3. The Fivefold System

The fourfold elemental system can be expanded to five with the inclusion of Spirit, a system known as the Pentagrammaton. This corresponds to the Hebrew name for Jesus, Yehoshuah (I-H-Sh-V-H), where the letter Shin (Spirit/Fire) is placed between the Heh and Vav of the Tetragrammaton. The fivefold model provides a crucial bridge between Western and Eastern elemental traditions.

Western and Eastern Elements

Western	Indian (Tattvas)	Chinese
Spirit	Akasha	Earth
Air	Vayu	Wood
Fire	Tejas	Fire
Water	Apas	Water
Earth	Prithivi	Metal

2.2 The Planetary Keys: The Seven Celestial Spheres

The lore of the seven classical planets is a central pillar of the Western magickal tradition. From the seven days of the week to the seven alchemical metals, this celestial septenary provides a rich symbolic framework for understanding cosmic forces.

1. Graeco-Roman Planetary Deities

Planet	Deity
Saturn	Cronus
Jupiter	Zeus
Mars	Ares
Sun	Helios
Venus	Aphrodite
Mercury	Hermes
Moon	Artemis

2. Greek Qabalah Values

The Greek names for these deities possess numerical values that were central to Hellenistic number mysticism.

Saturn	ΚΡΟΝΟΣ	510
Jupiter	ΖΕΥΣ	612
Mars	ΑΡΗΣ	309
Sun	ΗΛΙΟΣ	318
Venus	ΑΦΡΟΔΙΤΗ	993
Mercury	ΕΡΜΗΣ	353
Moon	ΑΡΤΕΜΙΣ	656
Total:		3,751

3. Astrological Symbols & Alchemical Metals

During the Renaissance, alchemists developed specific symbols for the seven planets, linking each to a corresponding metal.

Planet & Symbol	Alchemical Metal
Sun ☉	Gold
Moon ☽	Silver
Mercury ☿	Quicksilver
Venus ♀	Copper
Mars ♂	Iron
Jupiter ♃	Tin
Saturn ♄	Lead

4. Platonic Order and Greek Vowels

The Platonic order of the planets, arranged by their cosmic spheres from the outermost (Saturn) to the innermost (Moon), corresponds to the seven Greek vowels.

Platonic Planetary Order and the Seven Greek Vowels

Planet	Sphere	Greek Vowel
Saturn	Seventh	Ω (Omega)
Jupiter	Sixth	Υ (Upsilon)
Mars	Fifth	Ο (Omicron)
Sun	Fourth	Ι (Iota)
Venus	Third	Η (Eta)
Mercury	Second	Ε (Epsilon)
Moon	First	Α (Alpha)

5. Dee's Planetary Monad

The 16th-century magician John Dee devised a single symbol, the Monas Hieroglyphica, to unite the powers of the seven planets. Each planetary symbol can be derived from the components of this master sigil.

The Seven Planets on the Monad

Planet	Sign	Monad Derivation
Saturn	♄	The cross of the elements placed above the crescent of the Moon.
Jupiter	♃	The crescent of the Moon placed above the cross of the elements.
Mars	♂	The circle of the Sun with the cross of the elements placed above it as an arrow.
Sun	☉	The central circle with its center point.
Venus	♀	The circle of the Sun placed above the cross of the elements.
Mercury	☿	The full Monad: the crescent of the Moon above the circle of the Sun, above the cross of the elements.
Moon	☽	The crescent at the top of the Monad.

6. Days of the Week and Planetary Hours

The cycle of the seven planets governs both the days of the week and the 168 hours within it. This entire system, crucial for determining auspicious times for magickal workings, is derived from the astrological attributions of the Greek alphabet. Each day is ruled by a planet, and each hour of that day falls under the influence of a specific planetary ruler in a repeating sequence.

Planetary Ruler for the 168 Hours of the Week

Day / Hour	Sun	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thu	Fri	Sat

2.3 The Zodiacal Keys: The Twelve Divisions of Heaven

The Zodiac is an ancient system that divides the celestial sphere into twelve 30-degree segments, each associated with a symbolic sign. This framework provides a detailed map for understanding temporal cycles and planetary influences.

1. The Twelve Signs

Order	Name	Image	Order	Name	Image
1	Aries	Ram	7	Libra	Scales
2	Taurus	Bull	8	Scorpio	Scorpion
3	Gemini	Twins	9	Sagittarius	Centaur
4	Cancer	Crab	10	Capricorn	Goat-Fish
5	Leo	Lion	11	Aquarius	Water-Bearer
6	Virgo	Virgin	12	Pisces	Fishes

2. Elemental Divisions

The twelve signs are grouped by element into four triplicities (three signs per element) and by quality into three quadruplicities (four signs per quality: Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable). The elemental grouping follows the Tetragrammaton order.

Tetragrammaton Elemental Order as the Precession of the Signs

Fire	Water	Air	Earth
Aries	Pisces	Aquarius	Capricorn
Sagittarius	Scorpio	Libra	Virgo
Leo	Cancer	Gemini	Taurus

3. Planetary Influences

Each zodiacal sign is "ruled" by one of the seven classical planets, which exerts a primary influence over it. This creates an "alchemical ladder" of rulerships. Beyond simple rulership, planets have four states of dignity within a sign: Domicile (Rulership), Exaltation, Detriment, and Fall.

Alchemical Ladder of Planetary Rulers for the Zodiac

Sign	Planetary Ruler	Sign
Cancer	Moon	Sun
Gemini	Mercury	Virgo
Taurus	Venus	Libra
Aries	Mars	Scorpio
Pisces	Jupiter	Sagittarius
Aquarius	Saturn	Capricorn

Planetary Dignities for the Zodiac

Sign	Domicile (Ruler)	Exaltation	Detriment	Fall
Aries	Mars	Sun	Venus	Saturn

Scorpio	Mars	-	Venus	Moon
Sagittarius	Jupiter	-	Mercury	-
Capricorn	Saturn	Mars	Moon	Jupiter
Aquarius	Saturn	-	Sun	-
Pisces	Jupiter	Venus	Mercury	Mercury

4. Zodiac of the Human Body

Astrological traditions link the twelve signs to different parts of the human body. The Hebrew Qabalah, particularly the Sepher Yetzirah, offers a distinct set of these correspondences.

Zodiac	Traditional	Qabalistic
Aries	Head	Right hand
Taurus	Throat, neck	Left hand
Gemini	Shoulders, arms, hands	Right foot
Cancer	Stomach	Left foot
Leo	Heart	Right kidney
Virgo	Intestines	Left kidney
Libra	Kidneys	Gall bladder
Scorpio	Genitals	Intestines
Sagittarius	Hips, thighs	Stomach
Capricorn	Knees	Liver
Aquarius	Ankles	Spleen
Pisces	Feet	Heart

5. The Precession of the Equinoxes

The Great Zodiacal Year refers to the slow "wobble" of the Earth's axis, which causes the position of the sunrise on the vernal equinox to move backward through the zodiacal signs over a period of roughly 25,920 years. Each "age," lasting approximately 2,160 years, is defined by the sign in which the equinox occurs.

Precession of the Equinoxes

Age	Period of Time	Events	Zodiac
Taurian	4320 BCE - 2160 BCE	Origin of number, alphabet	Taurus
Aryan	2160 BCE - 0	Qabalah, I Ching	Aries
Piscean	0 - 2160 CE	Christian Era, Tarot	Pisces
Aquarian	2160 CE - 4320 CE	The future of the world	Aquarius

Aleister Crowley proposed a different timeline, arguing the Age of Aquarius began in 1904 with his reception of The Book of the Law.

Crowley's Precession of the Equinoxes

Age	Time	Society	Cult	Family	Egyptian Liber AL
Aries	2000 BCE - 0	Matriarch	Goddess	Mother	Isis
Pisces	0 - 1904 CE	Patriarch	Jesus	Father	Osiris
Aquarius	1904 CE - ?	Equality	Thelema	Child	Horus

2.4 The Art of Geomancy: An Oracle of Earth

Geomancy is a divinatory system, often considered the Western equivalent of the Chinese I Ching, based on 16 figures composed of four lines of either odd (one dot) or even (two dots) points. These figures are constructed from four fundamental two-line patterns, or bigrams, each with its own elemental and symbolic meaning.

Four Bigrams of Geomancy

Bigram Shape	Element	Meaning	Geomancy Figure
• •	Air	Access, movement, path (life)	Via
• • •	Fire	Loss, blockage, off balance	Amissio
• • •	Water	Gain, addition, in balance	Acquisitio
• • • •	Earth	To collect, group, unite (death)	Populus

These universal cosmological systems—elemental, planetary, zodiacal, and geomantic—provide the essential context and symbolic architecture for understanding the specific alphanumeric codes of the magickal languages that follow.

3.0 The Western Mystery Traditions

The esoteric traditions of the West, rooted primarily in the fertile grounds of Hebrew Qabalah, Greek philosophy, and Egyptian Hermeticism, developed a host of complex alphabetic and symbolic codes. These systems were designed not merely as methods of communication, but as comprehensive maps of the universe and the human soul, where each letter and number holds a key to divine wisdom. This section serves as a practical guide to these individual systems, offering the foundational knowledge needed to decipher their secrets.

3.1 The Hebrew System: The Foundation of Western Qabalah

The Hebrew Qabalah is the cornerstone of the Western Mystery Tradition. Its 22-letter alphabet is not merely phonetic but serves as a complete cosmological, astrological, and spiritual framework.

1. The Alphabet and Number Values

Each Hebrew letter has both a nominal value (used in gematria) and a positional value (denoting its place in the alphabet). The alphabet also includes five "final" forms for letters that appear at the end of a word, which have distinct numerical values.

Hebrew Alphabet Code

Letter	Transliteration	Name	Nominal Value	Positional Value
א	A	Aleph	1	1
ב	B	Beth	2	2
ג	G	Gimel	3	3
ד	D	Daleth	4	4

ן	Nf	Nun Final	700	25
ף	Pf	Peh Final	800	26
ץ	Tzf	Tzaddi Final	900	27

2. Hieroglyphic Meanings

Each Hebrew letter's name possesses a literal meaning, providing a deeper layer of symbolic, or "hieroglyphic," interpretation. This allows for a pictorial and conceptual analysis of words beyond their numerical value.

Letter	Letter Name	Number Value of Letter Name	Hieroglyphic Meaning of Letter Name

3. The 32 Paths of Wisdom

The seminal Qabalistic text, the Sepher Yetzirah ("Book of Formation"), describes the universe as being composed of 32 "wonderful paths of wisdom." These consist of the ten Sephiroth (numbers or emanations) and the 22 Hebrew letters that form the connecting paths between them on the Tree of Life. Each path is associated with a specific mode of intelligence.

3.2 The Greek System: Philosophy and Gnosis

The Greek tradition contributed immensely to Western esotericism, providing sophisticated systems of number philosophy, alphanumeric codes, and Gnostic cosmology.

1. Numeral Systems

Ancient Greece utilized several methods for representing numbers before settling on the familiar alphanumeric system.

Homeric Greek Numerals (Serial Order)

Letter	Value	Letter	Value	Letter	Value
A	1	I	9	R	17
B	2	K	10	S	18
G	3	L	11	T	19

E	5	N	13	Ph	21
Z	6	X	14	Ch	22
H	7	O	15	Ps	23
Th	8	P	16	O	24

Herodianic Greek Numerals (c. 600 BCE)

This system resembled Roman numerals, using six select letters to represent powers of ten.

Letter	Value	Parallel Roman Numeral
Ι	1	I
Π	5	V
Δ	10	X
Η	100	C
Χ	1,000	M
Μ	10,000

2. Alphabetical Correspondences

The standard Greek system assigns numerical values from 1 to 900 to its 24 letters, plus three archaic letters.

Letter	Name	Transliteration	Number Value	Positional Value	Hebrew Model
Α, α	Alpha	A, a	1	1	Aleph (א)

3.4 Runic and Celtic Systems: The Lore of Northern Europe

The magickal alphabets of Northern Europe, including the Runes and the Ogham, possess their own rich cosmological and divinatory systems.

1. The Runes

The most ancient runic alphabet is the Elder Futhark, composed of 24 letters divided into three groups of eight (aettir). "Futhark" is derived from the names of the first six runes.

The Elder Futhark Runes

2. Ogham and Druidic Alphabets

The Ogham is an ancient Irish script, often called the "tree alphabet," where each letter corresponds to a specific tree. The characters are formed by a series of straight lines incised along a central stem-line. A hand alphabet also exists, using fingers to represent the letters against a ridge line (such as the nose or arm). The ancient Beth-Luis-Nion (BLN) alphabet, a precursor to Ogham, encodes the sacred Qabalistic number 32 in its structure, suggesting a possible link between Celtic and Hebraic traditions.

Ogham Tree Alphabet

Letter	Name	Corresponding Tree
B	Beth	Birch
L	Luis	Elm, Mountain Ash
F	Fern	Alder
S	Sail	Willow
N	Nin	Ash, Nettle
H	Huath	Hawthorn, Whitethorn

3.5 The Latin System: Renaissance Hermeticism

During the Renaissance, esotericists adapted the principles of the Hebrew Qabalah to the Latin alphabet, creating new systems for alphanumeric correspondence and cosmological mapping.

1. The Art of Raymond Lull

The 14th-century mystic Raymond Lull developed a system of concentric wheels inscribed with letters corresponding to divine attributes. By rotating the wheels, new combinations of concepts could be generated, forming a prototype for later cosmological graphs and even early computing. His Enneagram assigned the letters B through K to nine categories of virtues, vices, and philosophical questions.

Lull's Enneagram

Letter	Virtues	Vices	Questions	Categories
B	Justice	Avarice	Whether?	Quantity
C	Prudence	Gluttony	What?	Quality
D	Strength	Excess	From where?	Relation
E	Temperance	Arrogance	Why?	Active
F	Faith	Bitterness	How much?	Passive
G	Hope	Envy	What kind?	Nature
H	Charity	Sloth	When?	Time
I	Patience	Anger	Where?	Position
K	Humility	Lying	How?	State

2. Latin Ciphers

Several ciphers were developed to assign numerical values to the Latin alphabet, often reducing it to 22 letters to parallel the Hebrew model.

Italian Latin Ciphers (22-Letter Alphabet)

Letter	Cabala Simplex	Cabala Ordinis (Italian)	Cabala Ordinis (German)
A	1	1	1
B	2	2	2

V (U)	19	200	100
X	20	300	200
Y	21	400	300
Z	22	500	400

German systems also developed polygonal codes based on a 24-letter alphabet, where values were calculated using mathematical formulas.

3.6 The Enochian System: The Angelic Language of John Dee

The Enochian system, received by Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley in the late 16th century, is one of the most complex and powerful magickal languages in the Western tradition. It includes a unique 21-letter alphabet and an elaborate cosmology based on four great "Watchtowers."

1. The Enochian Alphabet

The alphabet has several numbering systems attributed to it by Dee, the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and Aleister Crowley.

Letter	Name	Trans.	Hebrew Model	Dee Value	G.D. Value	Crowley Value
A	Un	A,a	Aleph	1	6	30
B	Pa	B,b	Beth	2	5	2
C/K	Veh	C,k	Gimel	3	8	40
D	Gal	D,d	Daleth	4	4	400
E	Graph	E,e	Heh	5	7	5
F	Or	F,f	Vav	6	300, 400	6
G	Ged	G,g	Zain	7	9	3
H	Na	H,h	Cheth	8	7	8
I/Y	Gon	I,y	Teth	9	10	9

O	Med	O,o	Ayin	40	70	70
P	Mals	P,p	Peh	50	80	80
Q	Ger	Q,q	Qoph	60	100	100
R	Don	R,r	Resh	70	200	200
S	Fam	S,s	Shin	80	300	90
T	Gisg	T,t	Tav	90	400	400
U/V/W	Van	U,v,w	Kaph	100	6	6
X	Pal	X,x	Samekh	200	60	60
Z	Ceph	Z,z	Tzaddi	300	1, 9, 10	90

2. Grammatical Analysis

Research suggests that Enochian is an artificial, or constructed, language rather than a natural one. This is evidenced by its inconsistent grammatical structure, where the addition of a single letter to a root word arbitrarily changes its meaning without a logical pattern.

Enochian Grammatical Terminative

Letter Added to Root	Grammatical Effect	Example (Root: LUSD - "feet")
A	-ing, their	LUSDA - "their feet"
D	thy	-
E	with	-
I	my	LUSDI - "my feet"
L	shall	TORZUL - "shall rise" (from TORZU - "arise")
ON	of...	ALDON - "of gathering" (from ALDI - "gather up")

3. The Rectified Watchtowers

The complex lettered squares of the four Enochian Watchtowers have often been published with scribal errors. The following information is presented as a correction to these versions. The true pattern behind the Watchtowers is based on 91 seven-lettered names of Angelic Governors, which are derived from seven tangent squares on the tablets. Below is a simplified reconstruction of the Air Watchtower demonstrating this rectified structure, with the Great Central Cross highlighted to show its form.

Air Watchtower Reconstruction (Simplified)

					T	O	S	I	F	M
					A	I	D	O	I	G
					C	C	A	R	G	O
R	Z	I	L	A	O	R	A	I	A	O
Z	A	R	E	N	N	A	A	B	N	O

					M	O	O	A	S	T
					A	S	T	E	R	A
					A	N	G	E	L	U
					S	U	O	T	U	A

4. Angelic Hierarchy

Within each of the four Watchtowers resides a complex hierarchy of 88 names of power, in addition to the 22 Angelic Governors. This creates a total of 444 God names within the complete system.

2. The Esoteric Qabalistic Structure

S.L. MacGregor Mathers was instrumental in revealing the secret structure connecting the Tarot to the Qabalah, a system that underpins all modern esoteric Tarot interpretation.

• Major Arcana: The 22 Major Arcana cards correspond to the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet and the 22 paths connecting the Sephiroth on the Tree of Life. Mathers rectified the traditional order to align with the astrological attributes given in the Sepher Yetzirah.

The Rectified Hebraic Order of the Tarot

Tarot Key	Hebrew Letter	Astrological Attribute
0. The Fool	Aleph (א)	Air
I. The Magician	Beth (ב)	Mercury
II. The High Priestess	Gimel (ג)	Moon
III. The Empress	Daleth (ד)	Venus
IV. The Emperor	Heh (ה)	Aries
V. The Hierophant	Vav (ו)	Taurus
VI. The Lovers	Zain (ז)	Gemini
VII. The Chariot	Cheth (ח)	Cancer
VIII. Strength	Teth (ט)	Leo
IX. The Hermit	Yod (י)	Virgo
X. The Wheel	Kaph (כ)	Jupiter
XI. Justice	Lamed (ל)	Libra
XII. The Hanged Man	Mem (מ)	Water
XIII. Death	Nun (נ)	Scorpio

XVI. The Tower	Peh (פ)	Mars
XVII. The Star	Tzaddi (צ)	Aquarius
XVIII. The Moon	Qoph (ק)	Pisces
XIX. The Sun	Resh (ר)	Sun
XX. Judgement	Shin (ש)	Fire
XXI. The World	Tav (ת)	Saturn

• Minor Arcana: The four suits correspond to the four Qabalistic worlds, and the ten numbered cards in each suit correspond to the ten Sephiroth of the Tree of Life.

Four Qabalistic Worlds

World	Tarot Suit	Tetragrammaton	Element
Atziloth (Archetype)	Wands	Yod (I)	Fire
Briah (Creative)	Cups	Heh (H)	Water
Yetzirah (Formative)	Swords	Vav (V)	Air
Assiah (Action)	Pentacles	Heh Final (Hf)	Earth

• Court Cards: The four ranks of the Court Cards (Knight, Queen, King, Page) correspond to the four letters of the Tetragrammaton and the archetypal family unit of Father, Mother, Son, and Daughter.

3. Symbolism of the Waite Deck

The Tarot deck designed by A.E. Waite and illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith is rich with hidden symbolism that encodes the Golden Dawn's esoteric correspondences.

• The High Priestess: The crescent moon at her feet explicitly links her to the Moon, the attribute of the Hebrew letter Gimel, clarifying her position as Key II. The pillars, Jachin and Boaz, and the veil behind her further cement her Qabalistic role.
• The Emperor: The four rams' heads adorning the throne are a blatant clue to this card's correspondence with the zodiacal sign of Aries, the Ram, and the Hebrew letter Heh. The predominant use of red aligns with the Golden Dawn's color scale for Aries.
• The Chariot: This card's ruler is Cancer, which is governed by the Moon. Waite encodes this with the crescent moons on the Charioteer's shoulders and the starry canopy representing the heavens through which the Moon travels. The two sphinxes, one black and one white, represent the dual forces the Charioteer must balance.
• The Devil: The goat's head and the inverted pentagram directly link this card to the zodiacal sign of Capricorn, the Goat. The astrological sigil for Saturn, Capricorn's planetary ruler, is subtly inscribed in the Devil's raised right hand.
• The Tower: The lightning bolt that strikes the tower is a direct visual reference to the astrological symbol for Mars (a circle with a projecting arrow). This identifies the card's correspondence with the planet Mars and the Hebrew letter Peh. The 22 yellow flames in the sky represent the 22 paths of the Tree of Life.

The intricate symbolic languages of the West, with their layered meanings and cosmological depth, now give way to the ancient and distinct systems of the East.

4.0 The Eastern Mystery Traditions

This section explores the sacred languages and cosmological models of the East. While these traditions—from the ancient cuneiform of Sumeria to the profound systems of India and China—developed separately from those of the West, they often share fundamental principles. Here too, we find a deep and abiding correspondence between number, symbol, cosmology, and spiritual concepts, revealing a universal human impulse to decode the structure of reality.

4.1 Cuneiform: The Dawn of Alphanumeric Symbolism

Sumerian Cuneiform, one of the world's oldest writing systems, represents a proto-magickal language. While not a fully isopsephic system where every word could be numbered, it possessed a limited cryptographic code where specific number signs were used in place of certain god-names in astrological and magickal texts.

Sumerian God Names

God Name	Cuneiform Number Sign	Number Value
Anu (God of the Heavens)	Single vertical wedge	60
Enlil (The Storm God)	Two vertical wedges	50
Ea (The Water God)	Four horizontal wedges	40
Sin (The Moon God)	Three horizontal wedges	30
Shamash (The Sun God)	Two horizontal wedges	20
Ishtar (Goddess of the Moon)	One horizontal and one vertical wedge	15

4.2 The Arabic System: Sufi Mysticism and Cosmology

The Arabic esoteric tradition, particularly within Sufism, developed a rich system of alphanumeric correspondences that parallels the Hebrew Qabalah.

1. Number Codes

Two primary numbering systems exist for the 28-letter Arabic alphabet. The Eastern (Abjad or Egyptian) system rearranges the alphabet to match the Hebrew order and is the primary code for esoteric work. The Western (Moroccan) system follows the normal sequential order of the alphabet.

2. The 99 Beautiful Names of God

The Quran provides 99 names, or attributes, for God. Each name possesses a distinct numerical value and is used in mystical practice and talismanic magick.

Selected Names of God

Pronunciation	Meaning	Egyptian Value
Ar-Rahman	The Compassionate	329
Ar-Rahim	The Merciful	289
Al-Malik	The King	121
Al-Kuddus	The Holy	201
As-Salam	The Peace	162
Al-Mumin	The Faithful	167
Al-Aziz	The Mighty	125
Al-Hakim	The Wise	109
Al-Wadud	The Loving	51
Al-Hakk	The Truth	139
Al-Hayy	The Living	49
Al-Ahad	The One	44
An-Nur	The Light	287

3. Cosmological Attributes

The Sufi mystic Ibn al-Arabi developed a sophisticated system linking each of the 28 Arabic letters to elements, zodiacal signs, planets, and colors in a special order.

Arabic Astrological Symbols (Selected)

Letter	Element	Zodiac	Planet	Color
A	Fire	Aries	Mars	Red
J	Water	Taurus	Venus	Green
Z	Air	Gemini	Mercury	Sandalwood
Sh	Earth	Cancer	Moon	White
T	Fire	Leo	Sun	Yellow
Dh	Water	Virgo	Mercury	Sandalwood
Kh	Air	Libra	Venus	Green
Tz	Earth	Scorpio	Mars	Red

4.3 The Sanskrit System: Vedic and Tantrik Keys

The sacred language of Sanskrit is the foundation for several complex numerical and spiritual systems integral to Vedic and Tantrik traditions.

1. Number Codes

Several esoteric codes exist for numbering the Sanskrit alphabet, including the KaTaPaYa system and the ARYaBhaTa system. These codes allow for the transformation of words and verses into numerical formulas.

2. The Chakra System

The Chakra system describes seven primary energy centers located along the spine, from the base to the crown of the head. Each chakra is associated with an element, a psychological function, and a specific number of "petals" corresponding to letters of the Sanskrit alphabet.

Basic Attributes of the Seven Chakras

Order	Sanskrit Name	English Name	Location	Element
1	Muladhara	Root	Base of spine	Earth
2	Svadhisthana	Sacral	Genitals	Water
3	Manipura	Solar Plexus	Navel	Fire
4	Anahata	Heart	Heart	Air
5	Visuddha	Throat	Throat	Ether
6	Ajna	Third Eye	Between eyebrows	All Tattvas
7	Sahasrara	Crown	Top of head	Point (Bindu)

3. The Tattva System

The Tattva system outlines the five subtle elements that are the building blocks of creation. This system was adopted and adapted by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, creating a bridge between Eastern and Western elemental thought.

Golden Dawn Tattva System

Tattva	Shape	Color	Element	Planet
Akasha	Black Egg	Black	Spirit	Saturn
Vayu	Blue Circle	Blue	Air	Jupiter
Tejas	Red Triangle	Red	Fire	Mars
Apas	Silver Crescent	Silver	Water	Venus
Prithivi	Yellow Square	Yellow	Earth	Mercury

4.4 The Tibetan System: Vajrayana Symbolism

The Tibetan alphabet, composed of 30 consonants, has a numerical code based on the Southern Indian serial order for Sanskrit. Each letter also possesses a deeper symbolic meaning relevant to Vajrayana Buddhism.

Tibetan Alphabet (Selected)

Character	Transliteration	Number Value	Symbolic Meaning
ཀ	K	1	Root, beginning, power
ཁ	Kh	2	Face, mouth, front side
ག	G	3	Essence of Buddha; the hidden
ང	N	4	Matter in constant change; dissolution
ཅ	C	5	Noise, cry, clamour, sound
ཆ	Ch	6	Intelligence, word
ཇ	J	7	Beginning, origin, birth
ཉ	N	8	Entrance, access, gate, door
ཏ	T	9	The number five; to desire
ཐ	Th	10	The skull, forehead; thought
ད	D	11	Power, to be able
ན	N	12	Pain, disease; a jewel

4.5 The Chinese System: Taoist Cosmology and the I Ching

Chinese esoteric thought is built on a sophisticated cosmology that predates many Western systems. Its principles have been preserved and elaborated through Taoist philosophy and divination.

1. Cosmological Foundations

The core concepts are Yin-Yang—the passive, feminine (Yin) and active, masculine (Yang) principles whose interplay generates all phenomena—and the Five Elements. The Chinese elements operate in cycles of creation and destruction, providing a dynamic model of cosmic harmony.

Harmony of the Five Chinese Elements

Element	Parent (Creates)	Child (Is Created By)	Enemy (Destroys)	Friend (Is Destroyed By)
Wood	Water	Fire	Metal	Earth
Fire	Wood	Earth	Water	Metal
Earth	Fire	Metal	Wood	Water
Metal	Earth	Water	Fire	Wood
Water	Metal	Wood	Earth	Fire

2. The I Ching

The I Ching, or "Book of Changes," is an ancient divinatory text based on 64 six-line figures called hexagrams. Each hexagram is composed of two three-line figures, or trigrams. The eight basic trigrams form the fundamental building blocks of the system.

The Eight Basic Trigrams

Trigram	Name	Meaning	Element
☰	Ch'ien	The Creative	Sky
☱	Tui	The Joyful	Lake
☲	Li	The Clinging	Fire
☳	Chen	The Arousing	Thunder
☴	Sun	The Gentle	Wood/Wind
☵	K'an	The Abysmal	Water
☶	Ken	The Keeping Still	Mountain
☷	K'un	The Receptive	Earth

Each of the 64 hexagrams has a core judgment providing oracular guidance. For example:

• Hexagram 1: Ch'ien (The Creative): Judgment: The Creative works sublime success, furthering through perseverance.
• Hexagram 2: K'un (The Receptive): Judgment: The Receptive brings about sublime success, furthering through the perseverance of a mare.
• Hexagram 11: T'ai (Peace): Judgment: Peace. The small departs and the great approaches. Good fortune. Success.

3. Numbering Calligraphy

A primary method for assigning numerical values in Chinese is based on the number of strokes required to execute a given calligraphic character. For instance, a character written with eight strokes has a value of 8. This system is foundational to numerological analysis in Chinese culture.

These Eastern systems transition us to our final section, which explores significant traditions from the New World and the modern era.

5.0 Other Significant Systems

This final section covers important esoteric systems that fall outside the primary East-West geographic classification, including the rich calendrical traditions of pre-Columbian America and the modern application of ancient Qabalistic principles to the English language.

5.1 New World Calendrical Systems

For the ancient Aztec and Mayan civilizations, the symbolism for the first 20 numbers was deeply embedded in their calendrical day signs. Their primary cosmic year was a 260-day cycle (13 months of 20 days), which was later harmonized with a 365-day solar year (18 months of 20 days, plus five "empty" days). The Mayans developed three distinct sets of symbolic images for these 20 numbers:

1. The Day Glyphs: Hieroglyphic images for each of the 20 days, paralleling the Aztec system.
2. The God Head Count: A series of alternate glyphs based on the heads of deities.
3. Bar and Circle Notation: A numerical system where a dot represents one and a bar represents five.

This intricate calendrical numerology demonstrates a highly sophisticated and unique approach to encoding cosmological principles within a symbolic framework.

5.2 The English Language: Modern Esoteric Applications

Inspired by the Hebrew Qabalah, modern esotericists have applied similar principles to the 26-letter English alphabet, developing various systems of numerology and symbolic interpretation.

1. Numbering Systems

Several systems exist for assigning numerical values to the English alphabet. The most common are the simple serial order and two Pythagorean-style reduction systems.

Letter	ABC Serial Order	Fadic Numerology	Modern Numerology
A	1	1	1
B	2	2	2
C	3	3	3
D	4	4	4
E	5	5	5
F	6	8	6
G	7	3	7
H	8	5	8
I	9	1	9
J	10	1	1
K	11	2	2
L	12	3	3
M	13	4	4
N	14	5	5
O	15	7	6
P	16	8	7
Q	17	1	8
R	18	2	9
S	19	3	1
T	20	4	2
U	21	6	3
V	22	6	4
W	23	6	5
X	24	5	6
Y	25	1	7
Z	26	7	8

2. Hieroglyphic Meanings

Each English letter can also be interpreted as a symbolic picture or hieroglyph based on its shape.

• A: The pyramid and its capstone; the Masonic compass; an arrowhead; the ox head and horns.
• G: The crescent Moon and the Tau cross; a spiral; the coiled serpent Kundalini; the rose-cross.
• H: A ladder reaching to heaven; the two pillars of the temple joined by a veil; the sign of infinity.
• I: The erect phallus; the spine; the world-axis; the wand of the magician.
• Z: The lightning bolt descending from the heavens; as above, so below; the zigzag path.

3. The Significance of 26 and 93

Certain numbers have gained prominence in modern esotericism due to significant Qabalistic correspondences.

• 26: This number is paramount in Qabalah as the numerical value of the Hebrew Tetragrammaton, IHVH (10+5+6+5 = 26). Remarkably, using the ABC Serial Order, the English word GOD also equals 26 (7+15+4 = 26), creating a direct link between the supreme name of God in Hebrew and English.
• 93: This number is central to the system of Thelema, founded by Aleister Crowley. As shown in the introduction, it is the numerical value of both the Greek words Thelema (Will) and Agape (Love), signifying their mystical unity.

6.0 Conclusion: Towards a Universal Magickal Language

This manual has journeyed through a diverse landscape of sacred languages and magickal systems, from the foundational cosmological keys of the West to the ancient alphanumeric codes of the East and their modern English applications. What emerges from this comparative study is not a collection of disparate curiosities, but a profound testament to a universal human endeavor: the quest to understand the hidden structure of the cosmos through the interplay of symbol, number, and language.

The primary mission inspiring this work has been the reconstruction of the fabled Rosicrucian "Magickal Language Dictionary," a text referred to as Liber Thesaurus. This legendary book was envisioned as a comprehensive lexicon cataloging the world's sacred languages by their numerical values, serving as an oracle and a key to the divine language of the universe.

While that original text may be lost to time, the spirit of its creation lives on. The keys provided in this manual—the tables of correspondence, the explanations of cosmological patterns, and the deciphering of esoteric alphabets—are intended to empower the modern student, researcher, and practitioner. They are the tools needed to continue this Great Work, to explore the infinite nuances of meaning hidden within number, and to participate in the ongoing act of decoding the divine language through which the universe speaks.
